“I absolutely loved my experience at Fixit PT. Beautiful location. The office was nicely done. Inviting yet professional. The staff is friendly. The staff listens intently to what your needs are and best yet! they deliver on fixing it. My hip has ached for years and within minutes the pain was subsiding and my range of motion was miraculously restored. I am completely sold on this technique. Other PT, chiropractic services helped, but this is actually fixing the problem. I am very grateful to have been lead to this group. I will continue to use their services.”
Joint Facilitation & Mobilization
Restoring Natural Motion
When joints become restricted or misaligned, your body compensates by creating muscle tension and altered movement patterns. Through skilled, hands-on joint facilitation, we gently restore optimal glide and range of motion to stiff or restricted joints.
Why it matters: Restoring natural joint mechanics reduces localized pressure, relieves pain immediately, and re-establishes the structural foundation your body needs to move freely.
Trigger Point Dry Needling
Resetting Overactive Tissue & Nerves
Dry needling is a highly effective, targeted technique that uses micro-thin, solid needles to reach deep muscular trigger points ("knots") and irritated nervous tissue that manual therapy alone can't reach.
Why it matters: By eliciting a brief twitch response in tight muscle fibers, dry needling instantly releases deep tension, resets overactive pain pathways, increases local blood flow, and accelerates natural tissue healing.
Targeted Exercise & Neuromuscular Re-Education
Building Power & Motor Control
Pain and injury disrupt how your brain communicates with your muscles, leading to poor motor control (coordination) and loss of power. Once we've freed up joint motion and released tissue tension, we use progressive, functional movement exercises to retrain your neuromuscular system.
Why it matters:
Motor Control: Teaches your brain to recruit the right muscles at the right time, preventing future compensations.
Power & Strength: Rebuilds your capacity to load joints safely, whether you're lifting a child, swinging a club, or powering through your workday.

FAQs about Physical Therapy as Fix It PT in Maple Grove and Vadnais Heights
What should I expect from my first visit?
1
Your initial evaluation begins with a comprehensive movement and physical assessment, a review of your medical history, and a discussion of your personal goals. We will perform targeted movement tests, diagnose the root cause of your discomfort, and create a customized treatment plan. You will receive your first treatment and a personalized care plan on day one.
Do I need a doctor’s referral?
In many cases, no! Under Direct Access laws, you can schedule an appointment directly with a physical therapist without a physician's referral or prescription. However, some specific insurance plans may still require a referral for coverage—our administrative team can help verify your plan's requirements before your first visit.

What makes you different?
Most traditional therapy focuses only on where it hurts—ice the knee, stretch the hamstring, massage the lower back. But pain is often just the warning light on your dashboard; it isn't the root engine problem.
Our F.A.S.T Approach looks at your whole body as an interconnected movement system. By fixing how you move across the entire chain, we don't just calm down your symptoms—we prevent them from returning.
